Syracuse might be headed back to the Pinstripe Bowl sooner or later after all.

The ACC agreed to a six-year deal with the Pinstripe Bowl, starting in 2014, ESPN reported Monday. An official announcement could come Tuesday.

The ACC would compete against the Big Ten, which has an eight-year deal with the Pinstripe Bowl. ESPN reported the Pinstripe Bowl would share the ACC's third through sixth selections with the Belk, Sun and Gator/Music City bowls.

Syracuse won two of the first three Pinstripe Bowls at Yankee Stadium, recently defeating West Virginia, 38-14, to cap an 8-5 season in 2012.
